The class of 2001 opts to focus on the Holocaust. Needing a way to visual the millions killed, and learning that the Norwegians used the paper clip as their symbol for the horrific event, the kids set out to collect one paper clip for each victim. After a promising start, their effort slows. Yet, when former White House journalists Peter and Dagmar Schroder, along with Washington Post reporter Dita Smith become involved, the kids and their project quickly gain national and then international attention.
Soon, the paper clips are literally pouring in from around the world. From that point on, the kids must deal with the millions of clips that arrive at their school as well as how to use them in what will become a permanent memorial for the Holocaust victims.
Some people comment about their own past and present prejudice, a few religious-related exclamations are uttered, an eight-grade girl wears a necklace that reads "sexy," and a photo shows a man with a cigarette. Beyond that, the remaining categories have little or nothing in the way of objectionable content.
Nevertheless, if you're still concerned about the film and its appropriateness for yourself or anyone else in your home who may be interested in seeing it, we suggest that you take a closer look at our detailed listings for more specific information regarding the film's content.
